The rest offered clarity, so I'll just briefly tackle this bit. I have a problem with that type of comparison because I find that it puts a spin on things. People have actually been doing this since gen 5 (when we finally had three solid competitors). Doesn't mean doing so is, necessarily, right/wrong - it's just a pet-peeve. |
well that i can understand. although i dont share that sentiment. doesnt bother me if people compare 2 consoles to 1. 50% marketshare at the end of the generation is a milestone, and people usually want to see that for their favorite console. so its always going to be there.
not to put a spin on anything, but the very source of this comparison being something i talk about started with sony fans coming out of the woodworks claiming SECOND COMING OF THE PS2!! back to the glory days and all this.. while the whole time, i really didn't think that the gap was going to be that wide. and in fact, recent trends are making me believe that it wont even outsell both combined which really puts to rest that whole idea. anyway, thats why i made that thread.
